Builder. Thinker. Explorer.
Hi! I am an incoming PhD student at Department of Mathematics, The University of Hong Kong. My focus area is Applied Mathematics for Machine Learning, more specifically Statistical Learning Theory and Optimal Transport. Since 2025, I have been running multiple stealth projects across Healthcare, Education, Consumer, and Finance.

Since reasoning with Mathematics/ First Principles is draining, I avoid using my brainpower outside of work and studies (I do not have enough API credits to run my brain 24/7). Instead, I spend time on outdoor adventures to reflect on life - you can see me kayaking, paddleboarding, hiking, or rock climbing in the middle of nowhere.
